AESTHETICS OF DIGITAL: WHERE'S THE FUTURE AND WHEN WILL IT GET HERE?

This panel discussion will utilize the expertise of our visiting filmmakers and academics from the University of Minnesota New Media Institute, the Minneapolis College of Art and Design, Carleton College, and the Minneapolis Community and Technical College to forecast where digital filmmaking is going and how it will impact the look, narrative structure, and overall experience of the digital moving image as a storytelling medium.

DIGITAL INTERACTION

Digital technology offers audiences the opportunity to further their engagement with films and videos through Web sites, CD-ROMs, and DVDs. Laurence Bricker of Popular Front Interactive Communications discusses the ways he and his team have blurred the lines between the TV set and the desktop for such PBS programs as American High, American Photography: A Century of Images, and Continental Harmony.
